The College of the Siskiyous men's and women's basketball teams were victorious at home Tuesday night in Weed. Below are recaps from both games.

Women's Game.

The College of the Siskiyous Lady Eagles earned an 88-51 victory over the Chabot Lady Gladiators Tuesday night at Eagle Gymnasium in Weed.

With the sophomore duo of Shyanna Ashworth and Anna Cameron leading the charge by scoring a combined 38 points, the Lady Eagles outscored the Lady Gladiators 50-23 in the second half and cruised to the easy victory.

The Lady Eagles found themselves trailing early in the contest, but quickly erased the deficit and staked themselves to a 10 point halftime advantage.

The Lady Eagles combined stifling defense with a red-hot offensive attack in the second half to pace themselves to the eventual 37 point victory. Their prowess from long-distance proved to make a difference as they drained eight of their fourteen three-pointers in second half while the Lady Gladiators found the mark five times from three-point land.

Ashworth poured a game-high 23 points, including five three-pointers, while Cameron followed with 15 points.

The Lady Eagles received strong contributions on both sides of the ball from former Yreka Lady Miner stand-out Carrie Watson. Offensively, Watson was an effective distributor of the ball on offense while also pitching in 13 points including three three-pointers. Defensively, Watson was a ball-hawk who helped set up several fast-break opportunities.

Fellow former Lady Miner Danielle Deegan also logged considerable time on the floor in the victory.

The 3-1 Lady Eagles have a short break before returning to action on Thursday at the Contra Costa Comet Classic in San Pablo, Calif.

Their next home contest is scheduled for Friday, Jan. 4 at 7 p.m. against Porterville.

Men's Game

The College of the Siskiyous men's basketball team delivered a 76-63 victory over the Simpson University JV team in their home-opener Tuesday night in Weed.

The Eagles' athleticism proved too much for the Redhawks from the tip-off as the Eagles took the early lead and never looked back.

In the first half, the Eagles built their advantage to as much as 15 points and saw it trimmed to as little as five points, but they never let the Redhawks overcome them and carried a 38-26 lead to half.

The second half proved to follow a similar script with the Eagles building leads and the Redhawks fighting back, but the Eagles never let the Redhawks climb into the lead and motored their way to the 13 point victory.
